Complexity reduction of astrochemical networks
We present a new computational scheme aimed at reducing the complexity of the
chemical networks in astrophysical models, one which is shown to markedly
improve their computational efficiency. It contains a flux-reduction scheme
that permits to deal with both large and small systems. This procedure is shown
to yield a large speed-up of the corresponding numerical codes and provides
good accord with the full network results. We analyse and discuss two examples
involving chemistry networks of the interstellar medium and show that the
results from the present reduction technique reproduce very well the results
from fuller calculations.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, accepted for publication in Monthly Notices of

Reversible Fluorination of Graphene: towards a Two-Dimensional Wide Bandgap Semiconductor
We report the synthesis and evidence of graphene fluoride, a two-dimensional
wide bandgap semiconductor derived from graphene. Graphene fluoride exhibits
hexagonal crystalline order and strongly insulating behavior with resistance
exceeding 10 G at room temperature. Electron transport in graphene
fluoride is well described by variable-range hopping in two dimensions due to
the presence of localized states in the band gap. Graphene obtained through the
reduction of graphene fluoride is highly conductive, exhibiting a resistivity
of less than 100 k at room temperature. Our approach provides a new
path to reversibly engineer the band structure and conductivity of graphene for
electronic and optical applications.Comment: 7 pages, 5 figures, revtex, to appear in PR

Levels of antibodies against babesia bigemina and babesia bovis in cows and calves by elisa using recombinant antigens.
Bovine babesiosis is a tick-borne disease that cause fever, anaemia, haemoglobinuria, and ataxia, consequently resulting in losses for the livestock industry. Babesia bigemina and Babesia bovis are considered endemic in the region of this study
